Lord I Love Playoff Football: NFC Championship Edition

By oddJoe ⋅ January 21, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

Freezing temperatures. Lambeau Field. A championship title on the line. Sounds like the making of a great movie about Vince Lombardi, but the tale told last night in Green Bay didn’t have the feel-good ending the Packer fans huddled for warmth wanted to see.

In a 23-20 overtime loss, Brett Favre threw two interceptions, including a game-killer in overtime. The running game, so good against the Seahawks last week, averaged about two-yards a carry — and there weren’t many of those. The secondary got burned by Plaxico Burress, who finished with 11 catches for 154 yards. Maybe the 14-3 Packers were just a mirage.

Or maybe the New York Giants are just that good. It’s hard to argue with success, and after beating Tampa Bay in the Wild Card round, the G-Men have knocked off the top two teams in the NFC to advance to the Super Bowl. Eli Manning has yet to throw an interception this post-season, the running game has been bruising, and the defense, including the much maligned secondary, has been punishing.

Can the Giants bring home an NFL title? Thankfully with the New York media we won’t be short of analysis and speculation over the next two weeks.
